CEEMS partners with the East Tennessee STEM Hub, <b>Fentress County Schools, and Union County Schools<\/b> to develop and implement this project. To accomplish the overarching goal of workforce preparation, the project seeks to use a multi-faceted approach to recruit and prepare individuals from at-risk and distressed counties of East Tennessee to become STEM teachers in order to expand and prepare the TN STEM workforce. Currently, there is a shortage of highly qualified math and science teachers nationally and in the state of Tennessee. This project will address two gateways to becoming a STEM teacher. First, the project will support high school students, graduating seniors and\/or college students by offering some curriculum to an introductory course (TPTE115) that is part of the VolsTeach STEM Teacher preparation program at UT. This will be achieved through <i>critical event #1<\/i>, a STEM Teaching Internship that will include twenty participants. Second, the project will support twenty college graduates through\u00a0<i>critical event #2<\/i>, an online course that will provide a foundation for STEM teaching\u00a0<i>and\u00a0<\/i>successful completion of the content praxis examination requirement in secondary mathematics. The praxis mathematics exam is a requirement for the Job-Embedded Practitioner Teacher Education Program at UT and is historically one of the most challenging content exams. The East Tennessee STEM Hub will provide outlets for sharing the online Math Teaching Preparation (MTP) course (once tested and refined) through its participation in the Tennessee STEM Innovation Network (TSIN).<\/p>\n<p>You can apply for the internship at <a href=\"https:\/\/tiny.utk.edu\/GrowSTEMinternship22\">https:\/\/tiny.utk.edu\/GrowSTEMinternship22<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You may also contact program coordinator Dr. Nick Kim at nkim2@utk.edu.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"orange-hash\">\n<h2>VolsTeach for Appalachia Noyce Scholars Program<\/h2>\n<p>If you are a Community College student majoring in Biology, Chemistry, Engineering, Mathematics, or Physics and would like to work with the next generation of students, this might be the opportunity for you.
